Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!

Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

Do you:

  • make a small cup with it
  • blend it with something else
  • buy more of the same
  • curse that you didn't use it earlier for a larger last cup

Blend with another bean, though something close to the same roast level usually.

This is the way.

I blend with something else on hand and hope the pairing works.

Blend it with something else. I mostly drink home roasted single origin, so yeah definitely making “Atlhart’s Blend” with the last beans of every batch.

Always blend and sometimes curse.

Today I did both because I had to blend good coffee with pretty bad coffee that I only own because I was guilted into buying from a vendor at a festival that I had too many questions for.

I find myself most often just blending it with something else

Man, that's a wordy article just to say to pour liquor into a glass.

Blending these beans and winging the rest. Last weeks collab between Wendelboe, La Cabra and Man vs Machine was tasty.

Throw a couple back alongside a bite of a dark chocolate bar. Poor man’s chocolate-covered espresso beans.

Blend it. Yeah it might result in an unpredictable result as I haven't tuned the grinder settings for it, but it's still good.

Keep some beans around for your future espresso martinis

[–] ludw 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Now that's a great idea 😀

[–] forvirreth 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah or just pour some over to a small jar you put behind your coffee liquor bottle and they can just chill in there. No need to keep those beans any fresh.

[–] UTJD16 1 points 1 year ago

Most often I blend it with another bean of similar roast level.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

sometimes gets blended with lesser bean for cold brew, since the dregs beans are usually pretty stale

[–] a_large_rock 1 points 1 year ago

Blend it to make a milk drink.

I also have a bean to cup that my SO uses, so left over beans get chucked into the hopper on that.
